1. It will make your wedding stand out amongst others

It's unique in the industry meaning your guests won't have seen it before, what a surprise when they receive it! Most couples choose to give it out at the ceremony or at the wedding breakfast. Photographers have told me that guests have "belly laughed" their way through their Wedition! You can include the finer details in your Wedition, those details you have spent months planning but the guests perhaps might not notice unless they are pointed out. Perhaps the ring attached to the bouquet was your Grandmothers, perhaps the date of your wedding is the date you shared your first kiss, perhaps the eggs used in your wedding cake were laid by your own hens. Whichever details you choose, why not showcase them all within your own Wedition?

A personalised wedding magazine styled to fit in seamlessly with your wedding colour scheme and theme, you can mention all these special touches and include photos of your details too. Have fun by sharing the favourite milestones from your story together alongside your wedding day stationery essentials such as your order of the day and menu, Wedition really is the perfect way to tie all your wedding planning details together and enhance the experience for each guest.

    2. Fantastic ice breaker at the wedding breakfast

    Not everyone will know who’s who on your wedding day, it is in fact quite common for some family members to be meeting each other for the first time, or meeting your wedding party for the first time. You can solve this dilemma and save embarrassment (how many times have you forgotten someone’s name the moment you have been introduced?!) by introducing your wedding party within your Wedition. There are a number of fun ways to do this, we can include a photo and fun fact, or a thank you message from the couple. We can invite your wedding party to share a story or funny memory from your friendship. I’ve even done a wedding party baby photo guess who game before! Introducing your wedding party to your guests in this manner gives them the confidence to say hello and strike up a conversation with this special person who they may have not met before.

    Including fun pages inside your Wedition is a great way to keep little ones entertained during speeches or to give guests sharing a table together and who are meeting for the first time a great conversation starter. We can include a whole host of features for you from wedding speech bingo, colouring and camera eye spy to your own wedding crossword (all Q&A’s related to you of course!), word search or table quiz. We can include any quizzes that you played on your hen/stag do’s or perhaps a table quiz or scavenger hunt for each table to complete.

    3. A beautiful way to remember your loved ones with Wedition

    Your wedding day is a time of much joy and happiness, it will also be a time to reflect on your journey up until this moment and and mark the beginning of your future together. It is also a time to remember loved ones. Loved ones who have passed can be remembered in one of the speeches or you may light a candle next to a photograph. Another beautiful and lasting way to involve a loved one who has passed on your day, is to include them within your Wedition. You could ask the Wedition team to create a bespoke poem for them, you may write one yourself, include a quote, a funny memory or simply their name and photographs.

    4. You can post it to guests who cannot make it on the day

    Sadly not all guests you have invited can make it. Perhaps you have an elderly relative too frail to travel, maybe you have some friends overseas who simple can't get the time off work to be at your wedding. What a wonderful thing when they receive Wedition in the post the same day as your wedding! There is no need for them to be left out, they will feel part of your day. Each time you receive a Wedition proof, it all come in a beautiful presentation box, you can keep hold of these boxes and use them to post the finished copy to guests who cannot make your wedding day.

    5. Wedition is about including what’s important to you

    Each Wedition is unique to the couple in question which means it is up to you what you choose to include inside. Perhaps there are so many elements to your day that will have significant meaning to you but how can you be sure your guests will notice them? Perhaps the date you have chosen is when you had your first date. Perhaps you are childhood sweethearts and the colour scheme reflects your school colours. Rather than a guest book you may have opted for an alternative idea such as a signing frame, jigsaw or drop top guest book which may need a little explanation inside your Wedition. What if you would absolutely love to have your pet on your wedding day but the practicalities of organising this might be too difficult. This is where Wedition will fit in perfectly. You can involve your pet in your wedding day by including a message or funny article written by them, photos and fun facts. They can be very much involved in your day, all the while they are calm and relaxed at home!

    And finally... Wedition as an ideal invitation for destination weddings

    Your Wedition will be the perfect invitation solution to your destination wedding. Not only can you use Wedition to highlight your story and wedding day details, but it will prove an invaluable guide to tie your cultures together. Perhaps there will be traditional elements from a British wedding that you wish to include which overseas guests may not be familiar with - having a toastmaster for instance; or you may wish to tie in traditional elements from the country you are marrying in or to combine the cultures you are uniting your families with. All these traditions can be explained in advance to your guests, allowing them to feel confident when attending your wedding which perhaps may be different from one they have experienced before, it will also be a chance to let them know wedding etiquette they perhaps might be unaware of. As well as details like this, you may wish to include hotel information, airport/transfer details and times, menu choices, gift list information, a handy guide to the local area and a timeline of the wedding day, ensuring your guests have all the information they need to know ahead of your day means there will not be a torrent of last minute questions in the days leading up to your wedding.
